Mask of the Week Challenge!

Hello Lovelies! As we make our resolutions and check them twice, I thought we could start a skincare version of the Weekly Challenge. Many of us wanted to use more masks, shop our stash and focus on our Skin so hopefully this thread will be an inspiration to do just that. Join us with pictures and comments down below.

Hello every, @eshoe and I are very happy to present the BIC Masking Challenge Spreadsheet. The idea is to have an easily searchable database of masks and reviews as a reference point when we are considering our next purchase. Data integrity was important to us so instead of everyone inputing data directly into the spreadsheet where theoretically information could be deleted or edited we have the questionnaire. It should take no longer then 1-2 minutes with the option for a more detailed review (which you can copy from your post on this thread).

Remember the idea is not to replace this thread. I personally love reading, commenting and interacting with all you amazing women here and that shouldn’t change. This would just be on top of that. Hopefully the more people that partake in this, the larger database of information we’ll have for reference. It will be extra effort in the beginning but then we would only need to input any new mask we’ve tried.

Thanks @eshoe for putting this together!

Each week there will be a new Masking Challenge posted. It will range from type of mask, brand specific week or fun challenges along the way.

Choose mask, take picture (with mask on or before), place mask on face, relax and dream of the next Sephora purchase you want to make, remove mask for healthier skin.

Have Fun!!

P.S. If you have any suggestions or challenge recommendations feel free to message me and I'll add them to the list.

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@itsfi That belif mask sounds kind of interesting. I haven't ventured much into foaming masks, but it sounds like it would be a fun way to mix things up!

I'm not too sure how I'd feel about a neck mask. I'm not generally into having things around my neck (even turtlenecks are a bit much for me), but I'm glad you found it to your liking, especially after a bit of trepidation!

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

This is a thin cotton sheet mask that has a panda face on it – but to me it looks more like a dog. My husband saw me with this on and told me I looked like a skunk and then said not to take it personally. Haha!

The fit was ok – just a little too long at the forehead and way too long at the chin. This one also has ears, which are always kind of annoying to me because they constantly kept flopping over, causing the mask to peel down a little. Once it started drying a bit, they stayed in one place better. It had a nice light scent, but it's hard to describe, sort of fresh and clean with just a hint of berry. It was drenched with serum with extra in the package as well. The mask was pretty comfortable to wear, but I did feel some slight tingling not long after placing it. I've been very good about checking ingredients first before I buy, but this was one I bought before I started doing that – alcohol is listed twice, probably about two lines down. I'm thinking the tingling was from the alcohol not playing nice with the REN Glow Tonic I had used right before. It wasn't an intense tingle at all, but it did stay tingly the entire 25 minutes I had it on. I was expecting to see some redness because of all the tingling, but instead my face and complexion looked brighter and clearer. Most of the serum had already absorbed and the little bit that was left wasn't tacky at all. My skin was left feeling SO soft and smooth and surprisingly wasn't too dried out from the alcohol. The package says it's supposed to hydrate and though it didn't leave my face feeling totally dried out, it also didn't leave me with a comfortable hydrated feel and I ended up placing moisturizer on about an hour later.If I were ever to use this mask again, I'd try it without using the Glow Tonic beforehand and see if there's still a tingle. This isn't the worst mask I've ever tried, but it is one I'd most likely not use again. I'd probably give this a C+ grade. There are so many other masks I could use that would give me the same results without the ill fit and tingling.

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

Ok I googled a gif for this and didn't expect anything to show up. Not gonna post anything I saw (and going to just keep catching up on my tags and not scrolling through them, though they are hilarious!) @Samtian. If you splurge, let me know. Don't have that category yet on the masking spreadsheet
